Recipe's preparation
Preheat your oven to 180C.
Place carrots and ginger into Thermomix and whiz for 10 secs/speed 7 (or until chopped to your liking). Remove and set aside.
Put brown sugar and vegetable oil in the thermomix and combine 5 secs/speed5 or until a thick brown paste is formed.
Add one egg at a time and blitz for 10 secs/speed 6 waiting for each egg to "disappear" into the mix.
Add cinnamon, walnuts, orange zest, grated carrots and ginger and stir 15 sec/"Counter-clockwise operation" /speed 4 until just combined.
Place self-raising flour, salt, bicarb into Thermomix bowl and stir on 20 seconds/reverse/speed 2 until there are no lumpy bits.
Pour into a baking paper-lined 22-centimetre cake tin (or in this case, muffin cases) and bake for about 30-40 minutes (if you’re doing muffin cases, bake for 15-20 mins. (You'll know it's ready when you can stick a skewer in and it comes out clean.)
If you want to ice it, wait for the cake to cool, then smear with a mix of cream cheese and maple syrup. Top with crushed walnuts and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon.

So yum! I used coconut oil
So yum! I used coconut oil instead of veggie oil and replaced the walnuts with sultanas. Kids and husband loved them.

I made these as cupcakes, used macadamia oil instead and they are really good.
Beautiful cake, I made it as
Beautiful cake, I made it as muffins and it is a large mix that makes lots. I found that it took a lot longer than 20 seconds at the end to mix everything together. The icing is easy and great too!

Awesome recipe! I didn't have
Awesome recipe! I didn't have vegetable oil so I used coconut oil and I only had about 100g of walnuts so added the remaining weight hazelnuts. Turned out devine! Thanks for the recipe.

Delicious! I've scribbled on my recipe to add the orange peel when grating the carrot and ginger. Loved the 'warmth' of these muffins.

I just made this, still in
I just made this, still in the oven and yet to taste, but just want to note that 30 seconds at speed 7 must be a mistake, I did 10 seconds and it was super finely grated. I think another 20 seconds at that speed and it would have just been a paste! Will let you know how it turns out.
